HELP - How to find your Pathfinder: Kingmaker Pre-order Bonus and Extras
Pre-ordered the epic role-playing game Pathfinder: Kingmaker at Gamesplanet and need some help locating your pre-order bonuses? We've put together a handy guide to assist you with finding all the bonuses and various extras that come with the editions of the game. If you pre-ordered you'll get 3 pre-order bonus items (Expert's Hat, Mesmerizing Necklace and Owlcat Pet) in the game. The Noble Edition also includes two character portraits, a digital artbook and the official soundtrack. You'll get even more with the Royal Edition or Imperial Edition which both contain: a Module for the board game (Digital), a digital HD map of the Stolen lands and the Red Panda pet. The Imperial Edition also includes the Season Pass for the game, giving you more post-launch content after release.
UPDATE: Owlcat has added the missing content to the game with the Soundtrack being added to the game folders.
NOTE: Currently there are some extra bonuses missing, such as the digital soundtrack. Hopefully Owlcat games will rectify this soon but for now there's still a variety of bonuses available.
How to find your pre-order extras
Pre-orderers have access to three bonus items in the game: The Owlcat Pet ("Headchomper" or "Head Maul"), Expert's Hat ("Expert's Hat") and Mesmerizing Necklace ("Biting Necklace"). You'll have to spend a few hours to get to the location of the bonuses from character creation so be patient!
